De ore prudentis procedit mel

This setting of a Latin text from the book of Proverbs might be heard during a celebration of a saint or a doctor of the Church. The words speak of the sweetness of wisdom flowing from the mouth of the prudent, like honey from a honeycomb. The composer, anonymous, has crafted this motet for two male voices (TT), which offers a direct and intimate expression of the text. The repeated Alleluja refrains lend a sense of joyful praise, fitting for a sacred occasion. The musical lines are intended to be sung from a staff notation, allowing for precise interpretation of the melodic contours and harmonic implications.
